Yep you're right!
Mind you, whenever I see DW, my brain always says "DesertWind" - which is the name of a friend on another mailing list!! :laugh: Confuses the heck out of me, sometimes. "DW half full" .. eh? Why would DesertWind be half full? ~light dawns~ ... Oooooh, Dishwasher!!! :rotfl:

Dobie.. flamin eck.. he has a good drive ahead of him then.. we went to dorest from the midlands a few weeks ago and ended up staying over and driving back the next day.. mind you we were stuck in loads of traffic on the way down.
You're right GP but he's driving to Bristol then getting a flight to St Ives (apparently that;s the nearest airport that goes to St Ives) then doing it in reverse this afternoon. He could stay overnight & claim on expenses but he hates staying away from home - BLESS.
I worry about him when he has a long drive though as he gets so tired.0 -
Morning all, its raining again, so have to take the care rather than walking with the trolly this morning, need to do a fruit and veg shop at Tesco/market.......

Managed to get on here this morning - supposed to be working
Have bad toothache as I've got another wisdom tooth whcih needs to come out. Have managed to make an appointment with the emergency dentist again (had 1 taken out there last week) as I don't have a dentist, it's not until 4pm as I don't want to miss any more work (or rather pay) so I need to put up with it until then.
It meant last night I didn't get all my ebay listings onto turbo lister ready for tomorrow as planned so must do that tonight. Had 3 more lots finishing on Monday night - am starting to get the ebay selling bug:money:
It's our shopping night tonight, there's a little sainsburys near the dentist so may pop in there and get some bits afterwards rather than doing a big shop - so dinner will be something quick and easy to eat.
OH worked from home yesterday, did the washing up and 2 loads of washing, but left the 2nd load in the machine and it's jeans so they'll probably need another rinse and spin before we take them out as jeans which have sat there soggy for 24 hours won't be great. Still he was trying to help, lots of clean washing from the weekend to put away tonight too.
Better get on, it's my mission to keep up better with the daily thread and post daily as I've been really bad recentlyInitial Mortgage January 2024 - £160,000

Morning all,
Well, I'm just proud that not only did I remember to soak my dried beans last night, I also got up early enough to boil them before putting them in my mini SC to do a Mexican Beany Thing (Pooky the mini SC you saved by sending me your spare tin when I killed mine in the DW) before heading off to my hated work. So now I won't have to cook when I come in from the dark wind and rain (apart from rice) and that also sorts out my packed lunch for work tomorrow
.
I really must remember to put the WM on this evening, I'm quite good at getting in, eating dinner and falling asleep on the sofa. Woke up at midnight last night wondering why the film I was watching had changed!0
